Prince - Acknowledge Me Lyrics

Say baby, what you waitin' on?
For you, huh, ain't no other fish in the sea
What you waitin' on?
Acknowledge me

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here forevermore
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend
I can make you happy, baby, over and over again

Saw you at the party, you were lookin' so fly
Everybody wanted your number, you wanted mine
You came right up to me in one wink of an eye
You told me that you think of me both day and night and that is why

I've got to know, how can you give your body to another
When your mind is here with me?
You need a friend much more than a lover
That's all I ever said I wanted to be

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here forevermore
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend
I can make you happy, baby, over and over again
(No baby)
(Oh baby)

I'm waitin' for the phone call but it just don't ring
I'm lookin' for a letter or a sign from heaven or anything
Every day that goes by is another day I want you more
I'd give a million dollars to see you baby, standin' at my door

I'll lay you down and tell you stories
About the way that we could be
And when you're ready to feel the glory
(Feel the glory)
I'll only want to love you when it's somethin' that you need

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here forevermore
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend
I can make you happy, baby, over and over again
(No baby)
(Oh baby)

Acknowledge me, don't dog me anymore
I was here in the beginning and I'll be here forevermore
Acknowledge me, I only wanna be your friend
I can make you happy, baby, over and over again
(No baby)
(And over again, yeah)

Oh, don't cha worry about a thing
(I can make you happy baby, over and over again)
Oh yeah

Come on pretty baby, sit your butt on the chair there
And let me run a gender in and out of your hair fair
A gender for the morning, noon and night, so prepare there
You can come alone or tell a friend, I don't care bear

This a funky party so you need to be open
Givin' up all I need so I don't need to be hopin'
And even if we're dealin' with that time of the month
It's 4th and goal and I ain't about to punt

'Cause as soon as you be strollin' in your Lagerfeld blazer
You need to know how many ways a brother can praise ya
Too bad for hell, too good to let heaven raise ya
And if you wanna see my dream, I need you for days and days

Baby doll, can you get the hell away
From that thing you call a man and then we can play
The kind of music that'll make your big butt sway
To the back, to the forth

When it's all said a better brother should be more
Uh, thank the Lord
Huh, for a body like that, titties swingin' like a door
Gimme two times just to thank my savior
(Acknowledge me)

Girl, what can I say, you got the crazy flavor
I'm givin' you plenty propers so you got to score
(Acknowledge me)
The only one that's gonna make you holler for more

Like a whore, I'm yours
(Acknowledge me)
Acknowledge me, baby
What are you waiting for?

Welcome, this is where I live
This is where I dream my dreams
Tonight we'll make love
Until the world stops turning, you're small but
